Eagle River and Chugiak taxi limited service permits to work

It is great that Anchorage Transportation Commission wants to issue limited service permits for Eagle River and Chugiak customers.  For this idea to work you do the following.  Do not set a number to be issued.  Issue by demand which is the permits should be nothing more than $250 administrative fee.  This needs to occur to insure competition and not require these permits to subscribe to a dispatch.  This is best for free enterprise.  The boundaries should be extended to allow pickups on JBER, Anchorage Airport, Alaska Native Medical Center, Providence Alaska Medical Center, Alaska Regional Hospital and Anchorage Railroad depot.  They should not have to be a different color.  They should be whatever color scheme the permit owner decides.  The owner of the permit must not own an existing permit in the system.  If these cabs join an existing dispatch they must dispatch an Eagle River and Chugiak type cab first to get these calls before they can offer it to the rest of the fleet.  These cabs must get all the slims and battery jumps in the region before another cab is offered first.   Separate number is not necessary but an attribute is to designate if an Eagle River and Chugiak is needed.  Before a dispatch can offer it to an Anchorage based cab they must be on dispatch board for at least 20 minutes first.  If you want better service for Chugiak and Eagle River area please call the Anchorage Transportation Commission at (907) 786-8525 or email at wwti@muni.org or Assemblywoman Amy Demboski at (907) 301-9179 or email at DemboskiA@muni.org she is the assemblywoman that represents the Eagle River and Chugiak area.  You can attend the Anchorage Transportation Commission on September 22nd between 6pm and 9pm at the Loussac Library.  We must increase options for Eagle River and Chugiak not listening to Anchorage Taxi Cab Permit Owners Association they want this idea to fail.
